# ContextMenu

`public interface ContextMenu`
`implements Menu`

android.view.ContextMenu

Extension of `Menu` for context menus providing functionality to modify the header of the context menu.

Context menus do not support item shortcuts and item icons.

To show a context menu on long click, most clients will want to call `Activity#registerForContextMenu` and override `Activity#onCreateContextMenu`.

### Developer Guides

For information about creating menus, read the Menus developer guide.
